Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and operate core systems that enable autonomous agents to function reliably in production.
  • Build agent execution systems with autonomous task loops, scheduling, triggers, and control planes.
  • Develop retrieval, context-management, long-term-memory, and structured-memory architectures.
  • Build multi-model routing and orchestration across providers while balancing quality, latency, cost, and failure modes.
  • Create safe tool-calling and integration frameworks for external services and enterprise environments.
  • Develop reliability, security, observability, evaluation, failure-isolation, and recovery foundations.
  • Build enterprise interfaces and governance surfaces for deploying, managing, monitoring, and controlling AI usage.
  • Shape product requirements, architectural direction, durable platform defaults, abstractions, and guardrails.
  • Measure adoption and impact, iterate on real usage, and improve the product directly.

Requirements

  • Experience building and operating complex backend or distributed systems in production.
  • Experience building LLM-powered or AI-native systems beyond demos, with real users and real constraints.
  • Strong judgment around reliability, security, observability, and failure modes.
  • Ability to work in ambiguous frontier areas and validate ideas through rapid iteration.
  • High ownership, autonomy, and end-to-end systems responsibility.
  • TypeScript proficiency is required.
  • Python is strongly preferred.
  • Strong SQL proficiency is required.
  • Production infrastructure experience is required; Docker and Kubernetes experience is a plus.
  • Familiarity with enterprise security patterns is a plus.
  • Domain familiarity with DevOps, SecOps, or infrastructure automation is a plus.
  • Comfort using AI throughout design, implementation, testing, debugging, and incident response.

Benefits

  • Small, highly technical team with high autonomy and ownership.
  • Opportunity to work on frontier agentic systems and influence product and architectural direction.
  • The role may be deployed on-premises, in hybrid environments, or in the cloud.
  • Level, scope, and compensation are calibrated to experience and interview performance.
